> Why is this person still employed, let alone have any responsibility?
It should be remembered that this is an accusation, and potentially fabricated or editorialised. It's probably ruined this woman's career by now and doesn't justify a witchunt or personal abuse.
The author, having been fired, has a very good reason to seek revenge, and we shouldn't take his word as gospel.
Given that he isn't employed he is likely his lawyer to take this case on contingency; which means there is at least some truth to what is being said. Remember he is quoting, in places, discovery transcripts; lying to a court is hardly something one does, let alone on a whim.
Going public is a double edged sword, if someone is willing to stick their head this far above the parapet there must be something going on. I'd say both parties have some explaining to do, and a fair amount of it. The evidence is compelling, I wonder if the other parties have evidence that is as compelling?
While true, everything posited so far seems reasonable - there do not seem to be anything unbelievable. The addition of multiple emails adds to that reasonableness. Yes, of course he's possibly forging those emails too, but doing this so publicly means this person has a lot more to lose than anyone else. He's hoping this all goes to court - I'm not sure too many people would bluff this far - I think he's got a lot more truth on his side.
That said, I tend to side with underdogs, and have been in a couple similar situations at large companies - nothing this severe, but none of the behavior seems beyond the pale for mid and sr execs at a large company (sad to say). I've worked with some really good ones too, but just because someone has risen to an SVP position doesn't mean they can't also act unethically (or even illegally).
The accusations are supported by Munira's comments in deposition, along with her emails. It'd be pretty hard to fabricate all of that.
It's not as if they're unsubstantiated accusations. Even if a significant portion of the document is completely fabricated, the bits based on emails & deposition are pretty damning.
I didn't realise that. Are the depositions online somewhere too?
To be honest, I don't believe he's lying. But I also think it's bad behaviour to condemn someone after hearing only one side of the story, which is what some people are doing.
